A VIII Declared Invaiid.
OrTAw, ILL.,, March 22.-The Su-
preme Court has reversed the finding
of the Circuit and Appellant Courts in
the matter of the will of the late
WILDER F. Storey. The will of Storey
beaueathed his property, including
the Chicago Times newspaper, and is
thus virtually declared invalid.
Storey left two wills very similar in
their nature, and the last was offered
for probate, but the point was raised
that at the time of the making the
testator was not responsible. The
| first will, made some time prior to the
one thrown out, it is supposed will
now be offered for probate.

A Man with u Good Conscience.

AT one of his Mortified meetings on
Monday, Mr.. Moody, who was preaching
about Prayer said: ''Man may pray
like saint, but if he has dollar in his
pocket not acquired honestly, his prayer
is sham, and he must make restitution
if he expects ever to have God hear his
prayer" Thereupon merchant from
Dallas, Tex, rose in the audience and
told story that emphasized this point.
He had, he said, got dishonesty from
men in his business some $500, and
had built house with the money. Then
Mr.. Moody happened along and preached
on this subject of restitution and the
merchant was present. 81 heard you, !"
he said, pointing to Mr.. Moody, land I
went out into the street conscience
stricken. went straight home and told
my wife that we must sell that house
and restore the money. And we did.
We held an auction, and our carpets, our
laces, our furniture all left us. and with
the proceeds we made restitution The
man then told how he and his wife
started again in life with nothing, and
how he had prospered. His credit, his
prosperity had never been SO good.

A Delicious Banana Salad.

Most people prefer fruit in its original ccn'
diton and look upon it as sacrificed when
converted into salad.
a fruit salad, however, may be very wei.
como ut times, and is to many people the most
delightful way in which bananas can be
served. a banana salad prepared according
to tho following directions, given by Cathc-
rino Owens, is delicious: Cut bananas into
slices, lenSthwise, as thick as dollar; ar
range them on n dish so that the ends OF the
long semi circular slices meet and form a hol-
low centre. Pour over them gill of sherry
made very sweet with sugar, and into which
you have put one teaspoonful of lemon juice;
let them get ice cold, then I'LL the center with
whipped cream piled high.
For those who object to wine, prepare the
bananas as above and pour over them dress
ing made as follows: A gill Of thick white
syrup sugar dissolved in as little water as
possible). the juice of half a lemon and the
yellow rind of two dark skinned oranges
rubbed on Jumps of sugar, which must be
dissolved in the syrup. Fill the hollow center

Shoes for Summer Wear.

Low shoes are very generally worn this
season; they have rounded, not pointed, toes,
are laced across the instep and have medium
high heels. Dull kid uppers with patent
leather foxing, or at least tips of patent
leather, are most used. Many fancy kinds Of
kid and of cloth are also used for the upper
parts of these low Newport ties. Tan and
gray undressed kid are light and pleasant to
wear, and are used both for low shoes and for
slippers; the latter are for full dress, or for
mornings at home, and should be worn with
stockings of the same color. Dark blue and
brown cloths, also shepherds checked cloths,
form the upper part Of low shoes, and also of
high buttoned boots Tan and russell kid are
liked for house shoes and for tennis shoes.
Canvas shoes in tan shades are also liked for
the country, while for the house are white
canvas or linen duck shoes with patent
leather foxing. Dressy slippers of black
French kid have embroidery of fine jet beads
on the toes, while those cut higher on the in
step have the large square Moliere buckle and
bow. Tan and reddish brown kid buttoned
boots and low shoes are worn by little girls. -

Four Literary Successes.

The New York Critics Boston letter
speaks of meeting -four young literary
men few nights ago, each of whom
had written q novel; each novel had been
issued by a leading publisher, and each,
as far as one can judge from the review
it had received, had been successful. AT
the end of year from the date of publ
cation, the amounts paid as copyright to
the authors were respectively 1925. 10,
$685. and SIT. The fourth one then
had receivcd'nothing, his book-a charm
ing little story, which had cost him all
his leisure for seven months-not having
sold to the extent of even 1000 copies. -
Contrast this with Mark Twain receiving
5000 in a single check as only part
of his profits on one of his works.

Philadelphia Red Houses.

Strata of clay, out of which good,
hard, red bricks can be made, have given
Philadelphia color which it is likely to
preserve through all changes of style. In
any view it is an expanse of red. From

How the Fair Sex Use Perfumes.

The indiscriminate use of perfumes is a
thing Of the past among the creme de Ia
creme. A lady no longer tips bottle Of triple
extract over her handkerchief or sprinkles it
ad nauseum over herself. Patchouli and
musk are Stunned now in any form, and
delicate odors, such as violet, heliotrope or
orris root, are used. Even these milder odors
are employed in the shape of sachet powder,
instead of liquid extracts, in many cases.
Laces, underwear, ribbons, note paper, gloves
and all smaller articles of dress are made fra
grant by large sachet bags that are Of size
corresponding to the bureau or dressing table
drawers. These bags are composed Of silk
and lined with raw cotton, upon which the
powder is spread. This in addition to very
moderate use of faint suggestive odor, such
as the wood violet, for instance, is all in the
way of perfume that is allowable by really
refined woman. Partisan dressmakers have
a way of sending perfumed gowns to their
customers. A strange feature connected
with this fashion is the fact that the odor re-

THE CAPRICIoUs CANDLE.

This experiment has counterpart that was
communicated to the journal quoted from by
Mr.. Harmand, of Paris In this latter take
two bottles instead of one, and place them
alongside of each other, so as to leave q space
of half an inch between them. Place the
candle opposite this space, and, preserving
the same distance as before between your
mouth and the camille, blow strongly against
the flame. Not only will the latter not be
extincuishe'l, but it will incline slightly
toward you as it through the effect of suction.
This phenomenon, which is analogous to the
preceding, is due to the fact that as II portion
of the air cannot pass between the bottles, it

out the gold, damaging it considerably.

Curious Mode of Getting a Livelihood.

There was young man stopping at a
west side lodging house until recently
who paid for his bed every night witt,
postage stamps. He had practiced THU
about week or more, when the pro-
prietor grew suspicious. With view to
finding out just where the fellow got tho
stamps, the hotel man had him watched
and discovered that his lodger not onl-
paid for his bed with the little brown
squares, but that he ate at several res
taurants where the proprietors accepted
stamps in payment. After watching his
ledger for several days and discovering
nothing that could explain his possession
of SO many postage stamps, the hotel man
refused one night to accept them in pay
ment for a bed unless the man could
satisfy him that they were not stolen.
The lodger demurred for awhile and re-
fused to talk about the matter. Then tho
hotel man threatened to hand him over
to the police, whereupon the ledger. after
swearing his landlord to secrecy, said:
